The first Canadian Series of Online Poker will take place on October 16 and Americans are welcome. SupremePoker.com will host the ‘series’, which is actually a single event.

With this being the first official year, the tournament organizers have enlisted the help of some well-known Canadian poker players to encourage greater participation including David Scharf, Devin Armstrong, and Kevin Malarek. The official homepage of the event www.csoop.com is also listing a 'mystery celebrity' who will only be revealed closer to the event date.
